Lamorinda is an American Viticultural Area (AVA) in the San Francisco Bay Area located due east of the Berkeley Hills in Contra Costa County encompassing the region around the cities of Lafayette, Moraga and Orinda. The name Lamorinda is a portmanteau from the names of the three locales defining the region: Lafayette,Read more
Moraga, and Orinda. It was established as the nation's 233rd, the state's 147th and the county's fourth appellation on February 24, 2016 by the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB), Treasury after reviewing the petition submitted by Patrick L. Shabram, on behalf of the Lamorinda Wine Growers Association, proposing the viticultural area named "Lamorinda." The AVA is a sub-region within the existing San Francisco Bay AVA and the larger, multi-county Central Coast AVA encompassing approximately 30,000 acres (47 sq mi) with, at the outset, 46 commercially-producing vineyards cultivating approximately 139 acres (56 ha) sourcing six bonded wineries with plans for three more. The appellation was proposed as the growers in the area found the wider San Francisco Bay and Central Coast AVA titles too generic and not indicative of its terroir.
